From Mo Ryan's Column:
A Supernatural source has confirmed that the ubiquitous and talented Mark Sheppard (the actor who has his own Full Employment Act) will play a "pivotal" crossroads demon named Crowley in Episode 10 of the season. The episode is called "Abandon All Hope...," and it was written by Ben Edlund and will be directed by Phil Sgriccia. It's the final "Supernatural" episode of 2009 (the show will resume its fifth season with new episodes in 2010. More than a month without "Supernatural"? Say it ain't so!). The episode is "epic" and will "definitely ... have the fans on the edge of their seats going into the holiday 'hellatus,'" my source said.
I think that the thing that Shrift was most likely appalled at is Sam and Dean at a Supernatural con. (I hope this means we get to see Chuck again.)
Morgan Freeman would be a great choice to play God incarnate if he hadn't already played the role in those awful comedies. I'd vote for Maya Angelou. Who can listen to her speak and not think that everything she says is exactly right?
Hmm, do you think that Kripke will sooth the anti-John fans and have JDM appear as the Anti-Christ?

Ah, yes. I think that's it. I wasn't exactly thrilled with the idea either. It's okay to wink at fandom, but this is more like fondling. Just tell the damn story and quit mugging for the audience.

Ditto. This is one where I think I'm going to have to wait to hear how bad the cringe factor is before I actually watch it for myself.
Huh. I have never watched Supernatural so this conversation is a bit surreal. Crowley and Azazel, does Neil Gaiman work on this show? If so I'll give it a try.

Wow. I didn't think the show was going to go there. However, isn't this the most natural place for them to go? Especially since they probably need the help of the guy who saw the future and wrote their novels?
Re: Christ
As long as James Cavaziel isn't cast, that will be a great accomplishment. I kind of want someone like Ken Leung to play the part.
I have to say, I'm curious about the con. It's canonically expectable--I can't wait to see who he thinks it's okay to offend. So far he's just amused me.
If Chuck starts talking about a movie or TV adaptation and they have a Twitter-crazed prospective actor I will fall out laughing.
